"我最喜欢的哲学信条之一是,人们只有在已经同意你的情况下才会同意你。你无法改变别人的想法。"
— Frank Zappa
Simplified Meaning:
When it comes to opinions, people usually stick to what they already believe. If someone already thinks the same way you do, they will agree with you. However, if they have a different opinion, it is very hard to make them change their mind. Imagine you love a certain type of food, like pizza, and your friend loves a different type, like sushi. You might talk about how great pizza is, but if your friend really loves sushi, talking alone probably won’t make them like pizza more than sushi. This idea can apply to bigger things, like politics or life choices. Often, people believe what they want to believe. To apply this wisdom in real life, understand that it's okay if others don’t always agree with you. Instead of trying to change their minds, focus on finding common ground or respecting different viewpoints. This can help you have better conversations and stronger relationships.
